Wanna fill this space in the front. The pygmy chain sword isn't thriving there.
Tank is low light no co2 10 gallon
Any ideas?
You could try a moss or something instead of something that's leafy.
I havent had any success with pygmy chain swords without using co2. I would recommend starogyne repens which i havent had any trouble with low light.
Hope this helps
I'll second s.repens although its pretty slow growing without CO2 in my experience.
Still a nice foreground plant to provide coverage.
Crinum calimistratum will do well in low light, no CO2, but needs a rich substrate or root tabs with macros. Also, Barclaya longifolia will do well, even in a sand substrate - this as long as the tank temperature doesn't fall below 76 dF.
Thanks for the suggestions :) I will take a look online and see what I can find out about those plants. I live the look of s-repens but haven't had much luck in my tanks unfortunately
